| Abstract | ||||
| Fifty five males with 60 inguinal hernias who required mesh hernioplasty were chosen for repair using the Prolene Hernia System (Ethicon, Inc.). We found the procedure to be rather simple, rapid, theoretically and practically effective in reducing the rate of postoperative pain and recurrence. It requires a short learning curve and has minimal postoperative complications. | ||||
